Steve Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Just now, salsa-king said: what does it do? I've already got a MetaSat tracker Fairly obvious Phil @salsa-king The crook places it one your car when no one is looking. You leave where ever you are and the crook tracks it to your house. While you are asleep he comes round and steels it. Simple really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terzoscooby Posted August 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 They are relying on the fact that most people's pride and joy sits on its own and only gets a run out on a full moon so easy to nick from its cosy lock up. The device is basically a mobile phone with a SIM card so the mini guys are saying take it to a popular location (e.g. supermarket) and remove the SIM card put it in your phone and run up a huge bill on high tarif calls. Then leave it in a bush at the location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salsa-king Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 how do you know where to look for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Doc+ Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 I smell bulls**t, looks fake. Our number plates plastered over the Internet are a tracker alone. if they want the car enough they will get it, they don't need a makeshift device.

terzoscooby Posted August 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Well the police have taken it seriously putting a back track on it through the mobile phone network and internet. These are the devices that have been used by a gangs who were stealing prestige cars. Basically put it on the car in the street/airport/ even care repair garage. Track it to where it is left locked up most of its life. Then use a gps jammer to knock out the cars own tracker and knick the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Doc+ Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 I can believe it, there was a video of an RS Focus getting taken the other day, 20 seconds and gone. like I said they want it they will take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
